Yes, looks like a good deal. Just over £300 p/m amortised.

What is the ‘services’ column?

[ninjajames]

Seems a decent price. I'd guess its for the BMW service pack..? I have ordered thru AC and that colum listed my maintenance charge so I'd guess that's what it is.

I had the same question. "The services column is the RFL, Road and 1st Reg fee for the duration of the contract."

That’s what I was told as well.

That’s ridiculous. I’d be kicking up a fuss.

My 128ti with AC has the free upgraded Live Cockpit and will arrive early June.

It’s £269 on a 5k 1+35 deal. I’ve gone with 8k per year though at an extra £30 per month. That’s with heated steering wheel.

Agreed but i'm not really one for kicking up a fuss. I have gone back to them and asked if they can meet the spec on the quote I had from AC (metallic, performance tyres, sun protection glass, harmon kardon) at no extra cost to me OR provide me a loan vehicle for the time I will be without (probably very unlikely).

As an update to this, Danielle at Berry was able to get the factory to change to Michelins. Small 'win'.

[Jkamizl]

Im confused. Im sure others have clarified with AC that “services” was the BMW service pack?

[trustnobody]

I was told it was for road tax, 1st reg and for the BMW service package.

[Steve vRS]

I was told that you needed to have the extra maintence package for any Bmw service.

My quote has a column next to Finance called 'Services'.

David explained that it will be for me to organise the servicing with the BMW dealer. I have to declare the fact my car has a BMW service package and BMW will go ahead and do it. It seems BMW will charge Arnold Clark for the service whilst I just pay the monthly charge.

[Steve vRS]

My contact at Arnold Clarke told me that the serving of the car was an additional charge, not this service line. £10 a month for serving would be the sale of the century!!

Agree - it would be a bargain!

So we have two different messages on what the 'service' of £10/month entails! Seems to be a different message throughout this thread as well so nothing definitive.

Hi lads new here. Just wanting some opinions on this deal I’ve been offered. I’ve been on the hunt for a few months now and this is the best I’ve been offered personally. Any thoughts?

Probably best to email them to double check and at least then you’ll have something in writing to confirm whichever it is.

Too blurry to read quote pal

Had my finance approved today. Settled for M135i in Storm Bay with pro pack, 557 alloys, boston trim, black dakota leather, wanted to add heated steering wheel (love it in my Giulia Veloce) but it pushed it over £40k and price shot up (would have worked out around £25 per month) so passed on that. 1+35 profile 5kpa £369.99 per month. Will be my first Beemer. Service pack is a bonus.

[ChrisWalsh1993]

Is that any clearer?

[Grantyboy1983]

Need to know the profile and mileage as well bud

I have a similar spec but with lumbar and the same profile @£340 but that was ordered very early on from AC.

Still a decent deal given the lack of any other reasonable alternatives
